Force Tomcat to use TLS 1.2

Hi All.

I have a WebHelpDesk installation (v.12.6) running on an instance of Windows Server 2016. My security people flagged the server as running TLS 1.0 in Tomcat on this server. Can someone point me to some documentation on how to force Tomcat (and thus WHD) to run TLS 1.2 only? It's not urgent..until it is.

Thanks.

I believe that topcat supports both 1.0 and 1.2 - You can configure the OS to reject 1.0 requests, but this will disable (Break !) the WHD API as the API only supports 1.0.

I've used Nartac Software - IIS Crypto before which will allow you to configure how secure your OS is.

If the WHD is public facing and depending on your port then you can also use SSL Server Test (Powered by Qualys SSL Labs) to check how secure it is.

There is more than likely someone who also knows how to configure tomcat to do what your asking, maybe a support call is needed with Solarwinds to confirm.
